You can use the Backup Manager to configure and submit a backup job for data in your network. Select any NAS server as the source and a tape device connected to a NAS server as the destination.
Note: In a NAS filer to server backup job, you can select any device attached to the Arcserve Backup server as the destination.
When you back up data from a file system, the Network Appliance NAS server creates a snapshot of that data set so that the backup reflects a consistent view of the data at the time of the backup. The data is then indirectly backed up from this snapshot.
Important! You can use the NDMP NAS Option when you have to back up data stored on a NAS server to a tape device that is connected to either the same NAS server or another NAS server. In either case, the NAS server must support NDMP. You can also use the NDMP NAS Option when you want to perform a NAS filer to server backup job.
In an environment where a shared backup device on a SAN is connected to the Arcserve Backup server and a NAS device, you can use the NDMP NAS Option to back up data directly from the NAS server to the shared device.
For more information about the backup features of Arcserve Backup, see the Administration Guide.
Important! The backup options depend on the NDMP version implemented and the type of NAS server.
